Supervised preoperative muscle strengthening programmes (prehabilitation) can improve recovery after total joint arthroplasty but are considered resource intensive. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) has been shown to improve quadriceps femoris muscle (QFM) strength and clinical function in subjects with knee osteoarthritis (OA) however it has not been previously investigated as a prehabilitation modality. This pilot study assessed the compliance of a home-based, NMES prehabilitation programme in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). We evaluated its effect on preoperative and postoperative isometric quadriceps femoris muscle (QFM) strength, QFM cross-sectional area (CSA) and clinical function (subjective and objective). Seventeen subjects were recruited with 14 completing the study (NMES group n = 9; Control group n = 5). Overall compliance with the programme was excellent (99%). Preoperative QFM strength increased by 28% (p | 0.05) with associated gains in walk, stair-climb and

Objectives: Knee is the largest weight bearing joint in the body and thereby is affected by diseases such as osteoarthritis more frequently. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a 4 week physiotherapy exercise program, designed to improve quadriceps muscle strength and girth, and to observe its effect on knee pain and activities of daily life through a pre and post exercise analysis in patients with knee joint osteoarthritis (OA).. Methods: Thirty patients diagnosed with knee joint osteoarthritis irrespective of gender, over the age of 45 and less than 75 years were recruited for the study. Initially knee joint pain severity was assessed using the VAS (visual analogue scales) and WOMAC questionnaire was used to assess the activities of daily living. The thigh circumference was measured in centimeters. Data was analyzed by SPSS 20.. Results: Mean age of osteoarthritis patients was 54 years. There was a statistically significant, reduction in knee pain (p=0.001), improvement of ...

Quadriceps weakness and wasting by Ole Thage; 1 edition; Subjects: Diseases, Electromyography, Muscles, Muscular atrophy, Neuromuscular diseases, Physiology, Physiopathology, Thigh

Interventions for PFPS usually focus on strengthening the quadriceps muscle and hip musculature. It is suggest that intervention programs specifically address muscle inhibition beyond typical strengthening exercises. To specifically address decreased muscle activation transcutaneous electrical neuromuscular stimulation (TENS), applied to the knee, has been shown to reduce pain and increase muscle activation in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. Interventions including joint manipulation applied at distant sites, such as the lumbopelvic region have also been shown to increase muscle activation following intervention in individuals with PFPS, but the duration of effect is unknown. It is hypothesized that interventions which alter spinal afferent signals may have an effect on efferent motor output. Since the lumbopelvic region and the knee joint share common nerve root levels it is possible that interventions applied to either site may influence efferent motor output to the quadriceps muscle. ...

Son SJ*, Kim HS†, Wiseman B‡, Seeley MK*, Hopkins JT*: *Brigham Young University, Provo, UT, †West Chester University, West Chester, PA, ‡West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV.. Context: Quadriceps deficits are often present in an anterior knee pain (AKP) population. However, common self-reported classification tools including Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Kujala Anterior Knee Pain (KAKP), Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), Tegner Activity Level (TAL) scores, and/or other subject inclusion criteria may not be sensitive enough to identify specific movement characteristics in patients with AKP. Quadriceps central activation ratio (CAR) may help to discriminate movement characteristics in patients with AKP. Objective: To examine gait mechanics between two subdivisions of AKP patients, separated by quadriceps function (CAR , 0.95 and CAR > 0.95). AKP patients were defined by VAS, KAKP, TSK, and TAL scores. Design: Cohort. Setting: Controlled laboratory. Patients or Other Participants: 30 ...

This study addresses these issues by assessing the utility of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique in localizing and quantitating changes in the nature of MRI signals in the quadriceps muscle after volitional exercise and NMES. Design: Volitional isometric and NMES-evoked quadriceps muscle activity was evaluated in two controlled trials. In the first, isometric quadriceps strength was determined during NMES and maximal volitional isometric exercise in six healthy ...

Quadriceps tendon tears are not common. They most often occur among middle-aged people who play running or jumping sports. A large tear of the quadriceps tendon is a disabling injury that usually requires surgery and physical therapy to regain function.

Historically, many people were under the impression that the rectus femoris was the prime knee extensor. They thought the vastus medialis was responsible for the final 15 degrees of knee extension due to the inadequacies of the rectus femoris (Lieb & Perry, 1968). Boucher et al looked at the vastus medialis activity in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome. They found that the vastus medialis and vastus lateralis were not more active in terminal extension. However, they did find that in patients with PFPS, there was a decreased VM:VL ratio compared to the control group. These differences were found to be attributable to a mechanical disadvantage (greater Q-angle); when the Q-angle was decreased, the ratio returned to normal. This same difference in VM and VL ratio was found in another study to be related to mechanical factors as well (Souza & Gross, 2001). Additionally, the authors discovered that isotonic quadriceps contractions elicited larger VM:VL EMG activity compared to isometric ...

Anabolic hormones are important factors in maintaining muscle mass for ageing men, but their role in overall motor unit structure and function is unclear.To determine associations of anabolic and reproductive hormone levels with motor unit characteristics in quadriceps muscle in older healthy and frail men.Observational cohort study of community dwelling men.Healthy and frail men , 65 years old.None.Quantitative assessments of electromyography-derived motor unit potential size (MUP) and compound muscle action potential size (CMAP) of vastus lateralis muscle.We studied 98 men (meanSD: age 736 years; BMI 25.74.0 kg/m2; diabetes 11%) of whom 45% were prefrail and 18% frail. After adjusting for age, BMI and prevalent diabetes, higher total and free testosterone levels were significantly related to larger CMAP (total testosterone: (95% CI): 0.3 (0.08, 0.53); free testosterone: 0.34 (0.13, 0.56)). Exploratory analysis showed the relationship between free testosterone and CMAP was stronger in frail ...

You may be thinking, is a quadriceps tear something that a podiatrist typically deals with? The answer to that is no, but unfortunately a torn quadricep can affect the gait of an individual with long term sequelae, which podiatrist do deal with. The quadriceps is a group of four muscles that make up the front of your thigh. The primary function of the quadriceps is to extend the leg due to a direct pull at the knee joint. One specific muscle, the rectus femoris, also aids in flexion of the hip. Both of these attributes are vital in running, walking and squatting. Clearly running is an important aspect of soccer and having the inability to extend your leg and flex your hip make it difficult to even kick a soccer ball ...

Acute traumatic, unilateral, quadriceps rupture after patellectomy is rare. We present a 42-year old male who experienced a unilateral left quadriceps tendon rupture following assault by four people. Twenty-seven years before this injury, the patient had suffered ipsilateral femur and comminuted patellar fractures, which were managed by intramedullary nailing and patellectomy respectively. We performed primary end to end repair of the torn tendon. Postoperatively, histology revealed findings consistent with pre-existent degenerative changes. The patient made good recovery, and returned to his former occupation which was reliant on his ability to drive. Degenerative changes of the tendon of the extensor mechanism of knee following patellectomy may predispose the quadriceps tendon to traumatic rupture. Early operative intervention and protracted rehabilitation are required to obtain the best functional results.

To determine if timing of a supplement would have an effect on muscle damage, function and soreness. Twenty-seven untrained men (21 ± 3 yrs) were given a supplement before or after exercise. Subjects were randomly assigned to a pre exercise (n = 9), received carbohydrate/protein drink before exercise and placebo after, a post exercise (n = 9), received placebo before exercise and carbohydrate/protein drink after, or a control group (n = 9), received placebo before and after exercise. Subjects performed 50 eccentric quadriceps contractions on an isokinetic dynamometer. Tests for creatine kinase (CK), maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) and muscle soreness were recorded before exercise and at six, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h post exercise. Repeated measures ANOVA were used to analyze data. There were no group by time interactions however, CK significantly increased for all groups when compared to pre exercise (101 ± 43 U/L) reaching a peak at 48 h (661 ± 1178 U/L). MVC was significantly reduced at 24 h by 31

1. Four paraplegic men volunteered for an exercise programme in which their paralysed quadriceps muscles were stimulated by means of computer-regulated electrical impulses applied through external electrodes. The first exercise regimen consisted of leg raising against a graded load, and during the second regimen exercise took the form of cycling on a modified bicycle ergometer. Each subject exercised five times weekly for 10 weeks during the first regimen and 32 weeks during the second regimen.. 2. Whole-body protein turnover determined by l-[1-13C]leucine during feeding remained constant during both exercise regimens, when expressed either in terms of body weight or fat-free mass derived from measurements of total body potassium.. 3. Quadriceps muscle protein synthetic rate increased during the study, from 0.0712 to 0.0985%/h (P , 0.05), as did quadriceps muscle area assessed by computed tomography.. 4. Bone mineral content for lumbar vertebrae was normal in all four patients, but for the ...

A recently published literature review and meta-analysis has determined that there may be a link between patellofemoral pain (PFP) and quadriceps atrophy, and authors believe the findings support the rationale for use of quadriceps strengthening as part of a rehabilitation program for PFP.. The analysis, published in the November 2013 issue of the Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, reviewed 10 studies that focused on patients with PFP and no coexisting pathology. Measurement of quadriceps size was obtained with a tape measure, through ultrasound, or by way of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and all studies included baseline data.. The studys authors found that the presence of atrophy was more reliably detected through imaging techniques than with girth measurements but that the atrophy did exist to such an extent that quadriceps-strengthening exercises could be an important consideration in rehabilitation. Authors acknowledge that this suggestion differs from research that ...

Results The original cohort comprised 351 patients (mean (SD) age 63(10) years), 59% males) with measured spirometry and quadriceps maximum voluntary contraction strength. Table 1 shows frequency of QMVC weakness and reduced SMWT performance in the different combined GOLD assessment categories. The majority of patients (58%) were in the most severe category (D). There was no statistical difference in the frequency of quadriceps weakness between categories. Reduced SMWT performance differed significantly between categories (Chi-square P , 0.001). Reduced SMWT performance was less common than muscle weakness in category A (P = 0.025). Logistic regression suggested that normal (preserved) quadriceps strength and SMWT performance were associated with long-acting beta agonist (LABA) use (OR 1.99, 95% CI 1.02 to 3.88, P = 0.043, and OR 2.00, 95% CI 1.01 to 4.00, P = 0.049 respectively), independent of assessment category and other COPD medication.. ...

The purpose of this case study was to evaluate balance of individuals following total knee arthroplasty between 12 and 16 weeks postoperatively using the NeuroCom Balance Master® 6.1 system. Two unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) subjects and ten age-matched control subjects participated in the study. All subjects completed a series of five assessments including weight bearing, limits of stability, walk test, step up and over, and sit to stand on the NeuroCom Balance Master® system. Results showed differences in the sit to stand and weight bearing tests with TKA subjects bearing more weight on nonsurgical leg. TKA subjects also differed from the control group in the walk test demonstrating a decreased walking velocity.

Osgood Schlatter disease is osteochondrosis of tibial tubercle that results from repetitive quadriceps contraction through patellar tendon.

Publication Year and Month: 1988 08. Abstract: Persons with good recovery of function following their initial poliomyelitis are now, more than 30 years later, experiencing new weakness, fatigue, and muscle pain. The likelihood of muscle overuse being the cause of this late functional loss was investigated by dynamic electromyography (EMG) and foot-switch stride analysis in 34 symptomatic patients. Manual testing grouped the muscles, with strong (S) encompassing Grades Good (G) and Normal (N) while weak (W) included Fair plus (F+) to zero (0). After testing quadriceps and calf strength, the patients fell into one of four classes: strong quadriceps and calf (SQ/SC) strong quadriceps and weak calf (SQ/WC) weak quadriceps and strong calf (WQ/SC) or combined weak quadriceps and calf (WQ/WC). Quantified EMG; (normalized by the manual muscle test EMG) defined the mean duration and intensity of the quadriceps soleus, lower gluteus maximus, and long head of the biceps femoris during walking. Overuse was ...

The pathogenesis of widespread pain and fibromyalgia (FM) is unknown. Altered responses from the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis, sympathetic nervous system and muscular system have been suggested as being of importance. The present study was undertaken to determine: (i) whether the sympathoadrenal response to repetitive isometric contractions until exhaustion is altered in patients with FM, and (ii) whether sympathoadrenal responses are associated with muscle fatigue and pain during exercise. Nineteen women with FM, and 19 healthy women matched for age, smoking and self-reported physical activity, participated. Maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), repetitive isometric contractions (6s contraction and 4s resting phases) were performed with both quadriceps muscles at 30% of MVC until exhaustion. Muscle activity was recorded from the quadriceps muscles by surface electromyography (EMG). Plasma adrenalin (Adr), noradrenalin (NAdr) and cortisol were measured and perceived exertion and pain ...

After 2 hours, mean temperature decreased by 2.1°C in skin and 1.0°C in muscle with Icy Hot Cream. Icy Hot Patch decreased skin and muscle temperature by 1.7°C and 1.3°C, respectively. In contrast, ThermaCare raised skin and muscle temperature by 7.8°C and 2.7°C, respectively; both were significantly warmer with ThermaCare vs either Icy Hot product. Icy Hot products produced a net decrease in skin blood flow. Muscle blood flow decreased with the Patch. After a period of fluctuations, Icy Hot Cream produced a net increase vs baseline of 7.0 flux. ThermaCare more than doubled blood flow in skin and muscle. ...

The musculature of the thigh is divided into three compartments by intermuscular septa that attach to the linea aspera, a ridge that runs down the posterior aspect of the femur (Fig. 19-1). The anterior compartment contains hip flexors and knee extensors, including the four quadriceps muscles (the rectus femoris, vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, and vastus intermedius). The posterior compartment is occupied by the hamstrings, which include the long and short heads of the biceps femoris as well as the semimembranosus and semitendinosus muscles medially. The medial compartment consists of the adductor muscle group, which includes the adductor longus, brevis, and magnus, as well as the gracilis. ...

Like many critical areas of your body, we ignore, abuse, or try to desire our pain away. The VMO attaches to your kneecap (patella) in a 55-degree angle on the top inside edge. The VMO is part of the strong quadriceps muscle group popularly called the quads. The VMOs most crucial role is to pull the kneecap medially (indoors ). The other three more quad muscles are either neutral or pull the kneecap laterally (external ).. Issues with the VMO can present itself in many ways. It can speak with you once you bend your knees as popping or snapping noise. It can really get you in your knee when you go downstairs. It may yell at you as your knee inexplicably buckles beneath you. Plus it may scream at you on a long-distance run like a stabbing feeling on the inside of your knee. The result is you being forced to drag your leg like a dead weight. All these symptoms may result in swelling and pain around the knee that could result in surgery and, eventually, an entire knee..

A large, quirky database of scientific sources about musculoskeletal pain, injury & treatment, constantly updated & annotated 1997-2018.

This anatomical study examined: i. whether the VMO and VML are two distinct muscles, ii. muscle fiber angles of the VMO and VML, iii. VMO and VML muscle fiber lengths, iv. VMO nerve supply, v. VMO insertion onto the patella. The length of the VML, VMO superior, and VMO inferior sections were calculated as a percentage of total VM length. Fiber angle data for VML, VMO superior, and VMO inferior were determined according to the femoral axis. It was concluded that the distal portion of the VMO is not distinctly separated from the proximal portion of the VM and VML. There was not a distinct fascial plane between the two sections. Each head of the VM was innervated by different branches of the femoral nerve. Most of the VM inserts into the quadriceps tendon with only a small portion inserting directly into the patella. ...

I think these are the quadriceps muscles shown in the picture above. The quadriceps tendon in the picture wasnt hurting. The patella tendon was hurting just where the arrow is. Into the third hour neither was hurting much. Significantly nothing was hurting behind the kneecap or at the site of the plate. I ended up skiing for five hours. No residual pain at the end. Steady pace on medium slopes. No rampaging. Most significantly my quads,which are normally stuffed for the first couple of days, werent tired. At all. Thats a first for me. I put it down to all the exercises you gave me. Today was much the same. All the muscles around the knee, but not the knee itself, ached for about the first five minutes but then it went away. I skiied for four hours today without any pain at all.. Late this afternoon, I spied from the chair, a beautiful looking run called The Bowl, a single black diamond coming off Lone Mountain, which is the dominant peak here. Id only been on the greens and blues but ...

If you are a competitive athlete, your surgeon will most likely want to test your leg strength before giving a go-ahead to return to sports. Your surgeon will compare your leg strength using some functional knee testing (like hopping). The goal is that your strength be at least 85-90% of your uninjured side. In addition to leg strength, your surgeon will assess your legs endurance, your balance, and if you are having any swelling ...
